CHILDREN OF WAR UNITE FOR UKRAINE PERFORMING “CAROL OF THE BELLS”

“Carol of the Bells” is a beloved Christmas carol, based on the traditional Ukrainian folk song that celebrates the season of rebirth and anticipation of a prosperous New Year. The song and the video carry a powerful message of empathy, unity and resilience, conveyed by the beautiful voices of young singers from Ukraine and the US, whose families had lived through the horrors of war, being displaced from their homes and the need to experience the basics of life. The music video brings attention to the devastation caused by the war and supports humanitarian relief efforts organized by United Help Ukraine.

Con Fullam, award-winning producer, musician, and songwriter, and Founder of Pihcintu stated “The joint effort between Pihcintu and United Help Ukraine not only reinforces the healing power of music, but also conveys the message of universal values of freedom, solidarity and peace.”

“We are grateful to Con and Pihcintu choir and delighted to cooperate on the release of this poignant song and video, ” said President of United Help Ukraine Maryna Baydyuk. “As we continue to raise funds for humanitarian aid for the people of Ukraine and the unjust war in our country, this beautiful song boosts our spirits and drives us further to help people and save lives in Ukraine. I also know that the video’s message of compassion and support will touch the hearts of many Ukrainians as well as all people all over the world who long for freedom and justice.”

“Working together with United Help Ukraine, we have refugee singers from sea to shining sea united in spirit to raise their voices for all Ukrainians everywhere who have suffered from this horrid assault on their country and its people,” stressed Con Fullam.
